I have this little 10 inch tablet/laptop that I was gonna sell until I thought maybe i could make use of it in the EX. The kbd comes off and it can be used in tablet mode...

So the big question is, where do I go to check out all, if any, of the possibilities?

I do have the Livelink software for communicating, and I also have an X4 that I could unmarry and resell if there are better ways to go... Not that the V10 needs much monitoring, but more for the cool factor...OR I could do iPhone thru the Kenwood..just have no clue what's available

I wasn't sure if I should have put this in the Computer/tuning section, but I am starting to get to know you guys, so, here tis.

 

I want to put my office monitor in the EX when I am traveling...but it just barely won't fit.

 

Hook it to a front mounted camera and use the monitor to replace your windshield ya goof ball! That way you would have a forward view screen like the Enterprise!

I know Tugly over in the 7.3L PSD section has his tablet set up to monitor different settings, but that's for his diesel. Not really sure how helpful using it like that would be for a gasser.

Here is the best place. You have your fellow Ex brethren to chime in, vs everything else Blue Oval truck related, but not necessarily Ex related.

You sir, are a genius

 

Close..... mount it to the back of the Ex running a front camera. Then people behind you won't even know you are in front of them. Especially good when the coppers are behind you.

 

Veepeak Mini, wireless (wifi or Bluetooth. Either or), and then download Das Command. For Windows, DC is $40+, but the Apple version works great in my diesel.

 

Since I don't have a lot to monitor, maybe I could put sensors on the outside and monitor stuff like drag coefficient, wind speed(true and at speed), or get it to monitor not just fuel pressure, but amt of fuel going to each injector, flow of air thru radiator. You know useless stuff like that......but impressive!!!!

 

The app can utilize the built in sensors in your phone/tablet to measure g-force and other goofy junk like that LOL

 

Like those G forces from that blistering acceleration

Now I'm dying laughing
